Are you asking how the collision occuring in IMC would prove that the collision took place in IMC? Sounds like a "if a tree falls in the forest with no one near enough to hear it" sort of question... |

Procedurally, you are correct -- if the pilot says he's IMC, ATC handles him accordingly. However, his statement isn't a "fact" in the legal sense in that it's uncorraborated and in the situation being discussed, another pilot is "saying" it's VMC by his actions. Which of the two "facts" is correct? |
